Dendrobium Genting Fragrance in bloom again

[NYCorchidman]

in two years!!!

I got this plant over two years ago. The mature cane was about 20 in tall and it had a long spike (longer than the cane) with over 40 flowers.
It stayed in bloom for a long time, but the roots were all dead. I made me wonder how that was possible! lol

As the name indicates, the flowers are very nicely scented. I was determined to save the plant and managed to get one keiki out of the rootless mother cane. It was barely 4 in tall last year.
In the spring this year, another new cane started and matured at 7 in tall, but with more leaves and much fatter pb, AND a mini spike with 9 flowers.

I'm very hopeful about next season's blooming.

During the day time, the fragrance is really nice!

Sorry about the rather blurry photo.

Gorgeous, I love these "antelope" type Dendros! Lovely color too!

[WhiteRabbit]

Nice!

[NYCorchidman]

Yeah, I love these guys.
The only draw back is the plant size except for certain mini types.

I guess I will see how big this thing will get.

Great colour!

This has also been out of bloom for a while now.
It is supposed to last for a long time, but I guess it was getting too tired. lol

No signs of new growth as of yet, but I hope soon.
Then, I believe this new cane will grow quite large, which means probably a larger spike at the end of this year. yay!
